My first ever batch of soap!!

[KattChaos]

* Goat Milk Base
* Walnut Shell Powder
* Kaolin Clay
* Baby Powder FO
* Yellow Pigment

They came out so adorable. I washed my face with one last night and this morning when I got up my face still felt so clean. I'm so exited!!

Does anyone know if any websites where I can get more Add-In's, Colors & Scents for a good price?

Way to go, KattChaos - those look great! Love your ambition with additives.

We'll be more effective recommending suppliers if we know roughly where you live. What region are you from?

Very pretty soap! Congratulations! A couple of the suppliers that I use (Michigan) Wholesale Supplies Plus, Natures Garden. They both have colorants, FO's and additives.

Thank you bunches, guys! I think I'm gonna stick with making Mini soaps. They are so cute and I can make all sorts of different ones.

I love additives. I didn't realize it until I made those soaps though. Lol

Cuuuute!

I definitely recommend Nurture for micas, they test their micas in cold process to ensure you get a good picture of what to expect. For FOs, Nurture, WSP and Brambleberry are all good choices. Just make sure to read reviews from lye-based soapmakers to ensure the FO will cooperate and stick well.

As for additives - it depends on what you're looking for. There are many you can simply get at the grocery store. Things like aloe juice, milks, sugar/honey, sea salt, etc. For more specialized ingredients like calendula petals or clays, I buy mine from WSP.

They are doing MP....at least that's what I'm assuming since it's in the MP forum.... FO's won't be a problem like in CP.
